Short and Sweet: David Chang

Korean-American chef David Chang was recently named one of Time magazine's 100 people who most affect our world. Chang runs a small empire of award-winning Momofuku restaurants, noodle bars and cafes in New York, Toronto and Sydney.

He's also made a foray into print with the irreverent, feisty quarterly food journal Lucky Peach, a magazine after our own hearts here at RN First Bite. And although we suspect he would prefer root canal surgery to being interviewed, we managed to eke out a few words, including what he thinks makes a top chef.
